Dr Who - back with a vengeance...

[Nosher]

"(cue the compulsory "on a scale of 0-5, I'd give her one" jokes)"

Of course! It would be rude not too

Episode 3;

Plotline 4/5

Dr 3/5 he is growing on me, slowly.

Miss Pond 2/5 I would give her 1 (naturally), but she irritates me a bit like Martha Jones did!

New Daleks 0/5 - they 'still' look like a FIAT advert

[nikharwood]

Looks like

a) I need to watch this episode...

and

b) we might need to form an orderly queue for Miss Pond 

[nikharwood]

Right - I've got a bone to pick with you lot - here I am, 2 minutes into this episode to discover that Miss Pond's got her miniskirt & cowboy boots on...which is lovely.

Now - how come none of you thought to mention that then? I'd have watched this *days* ago...

[nikharwood]

Well - I thought that was fun - additional highlight from me:

War room air-force chappy radio-ing the Spitfires-in-Space: "Broadsword calling Danny-Boy"
Dr's use of a jammie dodger as a Tardis self-destruct button

[Pruneau]

I liked episode 3 a lot as well.  And I quite like the new Doctor.

I had to stop watching it when Catherine Tate was in it because she's the television equivalent of someone dragging their nails down a blackboard, though a lot of people seem to disagree. Really enjoying this new series so far and ms Pond is definitely a good addition.

[Last Hussar]

DO you think she know... you know, about all the sad middle aged blokes?

[Jubilation T Cornpone]

I'm not sure. Is she a member of TMP?!?

[Nosher]

DO you think she know... you know, about all the sad middle aged blokes?

Speak for yourself

I'm 42 and dont consider myself middle aged or sad (although my kids would disagree )

[Nosher]

And I do have to concede that this series is getting better. 11/13 was fab, but that might be because Amy only played a bit part (she still irritates me - sorry Nik).

However the blonde flat mate was definately worth a squirt!

[nikharwood]

Yep - I'm definitely *not* a sad middle-aged etc...I'm a 21 yr-old Adonis (at least mentally...)

nosher: you have seen the miniskirt & cowboy-boot episode right?  

And "worth a squirt"? Nice, classy turn of phrase there mate  

[Last Hussar]

However the blonde flat mate was definately worth a squirt!

James Corden? Well each to his own,

[Nosher]

James Corden? Well each to his own,

Don't knock it till you've tried it

James is more of a mousy blonde

[Luddite]

Last in series tonight..

'Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue...'

I'm still smiling like a schoolboy at that one.    

Ruddy marvellous!!  

Can't wait for the Xmas special, and next year's offerings to find out what The Silence is and who River Song really is...my money's on the Rani or a future regen of The Dr...


That, Ghana stuffing the Yanks, and Mumford & Son on BBC red button Glasters loop...turned out to be a pretty good saturday, despite the thunderstorms...
